Knudsen Numbers

To characterize the microflow over a larger range of Knudsen numbers, an improved kinetic equation considering the volume diffusion effect for nonideal gases was presented based on Klimontovich's kinetic equation and Enskog equation-based lattice Boltzmann Bhatnagar–Gross–Krook (LBGK) model. Then, with the modified effective viscosity and the second-order slip boundary condition, a series of numerical simulations of gas flows with different mean Knudsen numbers were carried out based on the proposed model. Compared with the solutions of Navier–Stokes equations, Navier–Stokes equations with different slip boundary conditions, bivelocity hydrodynetics, and experimental data, we found that the present model can be valid up to a Knudsen number of 30. It is also shown that the present model furnishes a better solution in the transitional flow regime (0.1 < Kn < 10). The results not only illustrate that the present model could offer a satisfactory solution to a wider range of mean Knudsen number, but also show the importance of the compressibility and surface-dominated effects in micro gas flows. The improved model provides a promising tool for handling the micro gas flows with complex geometries and boundaries.

It is proved that complex flows of the viscous compressible heat-conducting gas, arising during heating the vertical field, have a pronounced axial symmetry. Therefore, for the numerical solution of the full Navier-Stokes equations for description of such gas flows it are advisable to use a cylindrical coordinate system. This paper describes the transformation of the first projection of the equation of motion of the full Navier-Stokes equations system. The result of the transformation is a record of the first projection of the equation of a continuous medium motion in the cylindrical coordinate system.

Expansion Model

For the reason that flow expansion model (developed in our previous work) for evaluating mass transfer during droplet formation involves with manifest hydrodynamic aspects, in this research computational simulation of this phenomenon was done for characterization of hydrodynamics effects on the mass transfer during droplet formation. For this purpose, an Eulerian volume tracking computational code based on volume of fluid (VOF) method was developed to solve the transient Navier-Stokes equations for the axisymmetric free-boundary problem of a Newtonian liquid that is dripping vertically and breaking as drops into another immiscible Newtonian fluid. The effects of hydrodynamics effects on the mass transfer during droplet formation have been discussed in the three features, including: 1- The intensity of the interaction between two phases 2-The strength and positions of the main vorticities on the nozzle tip 3-The effects of local interfacial vorticities (LIV). These features are considered to explain the complexities of drop formation mass transfer between Ethyl Acetoacetate (presaturated with water) as an organic dispersed phase and water as continuous phase for two big and small nozzle sizes (0.023 and 0.047 cm, ID) which have different level of mass transfer rate particularly in first stages of formation time.

Global Equilibrium

We study the Boltzmann equation on the [Formula: see text]-dimensional torus in a perturbative setting around a global equilibrium under the Navier–Stokes linearization. We use a recent functional analysis breakthrough to prove that the linear part of the equation generates a [Formula: see text]-semigroup with exponential decay in Lebesgue and Sobolev spaces with polynomial weight, independently of the Knudsen number. Finally, we prove well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear Boltzmann equation in perturbative setting and an exponential decay for the perturbed Boltzmann equation, uniformly in the Knudsen number, in Sobolev spaces with polynomial weight. The polynomial weight is almost optimal. Furthermore, this result only requires derivatives in the space variable and allows to connect solutions to the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations in these spaces.

Numerical solutions of Navier-Stokes equations are nowadays widely used for several industrial applications in different fields (aerodynamic, propulsion, naval, combustion, etc..), but the solution methods still require significant improvements especially in two aspects: turbulence modeling and fluid modeling. The paper describes in some detail a real fluid model based on Redlich-Kwong-Aungier equation of state and its implementation into a Navier-Stokes solver developed by the authors for turbomachinery flows analysis.

Drying Conditions

Knowledge of heat and mass transfer coefficients is essential for drying simulation studies or design of food and grain thermal processes, including drying. This work presents the full development of a segregated finite element method to solve convection-diffusion problems. The developed scheme allows solving the incompressible, steady-state Navier-Stokes equations and convective-diffusive problems with temperature and moisture dependent properties. The problem of simultaneous energy, momentum and species transfer along an infinite, horizontal cylinder under drying conditions in forced convection is presented, considering conditions normally found in biological material thermal treatment or drying. Numerical results for Nusselt and Sherwood numbers were compared against available empirical expressions; the results agreed within the associated experimental errors. For high rate mass transport processes, the proposed methodology allows to simulate drying conditions involving wall convective mass flux by a simple inclusion of the appropriated boundary conditions.

The method of parallelizing a numerical solution of the complete system of Navier - Stokes equations is used to describe three-dimensional unsteady flows of a viscous compressible heat-conducting gas in ascending swirling flows. In this case the action of gravity and Coriolis forces is taken into account, and the coefficients of viscosity and thermal conductivity are assumed to be constant. The results of the numerical construction of instantaneous streamlines characterizing complex three-dimensional flows are presented for simulation the steady-state output of an ascend-ing swirling air flow in an artificial tornado.
